So, most of my concerns have already been mentioned by other folks in
this thread:
* No rhel7/8 support will annoy people, and also increase burden on
fedora infrastructure since we would have to move our koji hubs to
Fedora instead of RHEL to be able to read the rpms made on builders.
(Or ship a custom rpm, but we have done that before and it's been always
a nightmare).
* This cannot land until we finish sorting out armv7 builder issues.
(see bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1576593 ).
I am trying to see if we can get away with a f29 userspace and a
specific kernel we think works. Until this is moved however, all the
armv7 buildvm's are on fedora 27, so they wouldn't be able to handle
this change.
* The drpm issue is somewhat minor in my mind since we don't produce
very useful drpms right now (due to pungi not having anything more than
the last updates compose to build them against).
So, this definitely needs extra coordination if we decide to go for it.
